Endless Endeavor with Greg Anderson
Operation Podcast
What's up guys, my name is Greg Anderson, and after spending a decade in the Special Operations/Para-Military community and 14 overseas deployments, I pursued a new career in Law Enforcement with the interest in putting the deployment lifestyle behind me.
In light of so many events in 2020 regarding law enforcement I decided to speak up on the behalf of the profession and it ultimately cost me my job, but because of this I've taken my life in a new direction and one of my pursuits is launching this podcast!
The Endless Endeavor Podcasts was created with the understanding that life is a continuous and arduous journey. I've learned that the only way I can grow and develop as a human is maintaining an understanding that there is always a lot to learn and preserve a curiosity across a wide spectrum of interests.
Through this journey of life I have had the honor to walk amongst giants and look forward to bringing our listeners quality content on a variety of topics.
We will be delving into military operations, jiu jitsu and martial arts, liberty and freedom, tactical proficiency, health and wellness, overcoming depression and PTSD, leadership and team dynamics, parenting, law enforcement and so much more.

EE 027: The Plague of Polarizing Political Ideologies with Tobin Foulke
In Episode 027 I once again sit down with my life long friend Tobin Foulke who served in the 75th Ranger Regiment with me, and discuss the current climate of Washington State. Polarizing political ideologies continue to separate citizens further and further apart as one side continues to perpetuate lockdown orders and the opposing viewpoint requesting the state opens up. Tobin and I are both middle class and feel the political elite mandating these orders continue to crush small business owners, making a recovery less and less likely as time goes on. We are both encouraging resistance to what we perceive as unjust and unconstitutional orders that are destroying the American middle class. Please enjoy Episode 027 of the Endless Endeavor Podcast.

EE 021: Perspectives From a Patrol Officer with Aaron Myers
In Episode 21 I sit down with my friend Aaron Myers who is a patrol officer in the Seattle area. Aaron and I have worked countless shifts together and I always appreciated his perspectives and his approach to police work. Aaron has a realistic and refreshing approach regarding so many social issues plaguing our society. In wake of all the political pressures, it is becoming rare to hear police officers speak their mind and share their perspectives. Social issues such as politics, BLM, toxic masculinity, and converting children's gender have all become talking points that officers either support of receive backlash. Its refreshing to hear an officer's real and honest opinions.
